Alice POV

After the whole 'sexually frustrated Edward' incident, we all sat at the dining table with Rufus eating under Bella's chair. He'd made her sit farthest from Edward. It was hilarious. We hadn't had a good laugh since Emmett left for college. I didn't know anything about Bella. She didn't even ask me my name or introduce herself. Rufus pushed her to sit between Carlisle and Jacob. I never knew Carlisle harbored fatherly feelings towards another girl. I wasn't jealous. Merely curious why her name never came up. I understood that she didn't like meeting new people but that couldn't be it. Esme and Carlisle talked about everything with us.

"What are you guys doing today?" Esme asked looking at Bella and Jacob.

"About that. Can we do messy stuff in the backyard? I promise we'll clean it up." Jacob asked.

"What stuff?" Esme asked smiling.

"Automobile repair." Carlisle chuckled. "You remember their store?"

"Oh yes." Esme recalled. "How's it going by the way?"

"Amazing. It was a great idea." Bella smiled. "Everyone in the Rez knows us. The income's over the top."

"Yeah. You wouldn't believe it." Jacob grinned. "Black Swan's pretty famous now."

"Black Swan?" I asked shocked. "The best automobile repair shop in Forks?"

"Yeah." Jacob grinned.

"But I have been to that store. I never saw you guys." Edward said frowning.

"Seth handles it outside the Rez. He's the delivery guy as you call it. He brings them to Bella's house and we operate on it. We have two garages. One in each of our houses." Jacob explained. "Seth's the Ambulance for cars out of reach. But right now. We don't have anything to work on from the Rez. So, my garage is pretty useless now. And the store can't just close. The next best option would be that Bella goes back to her house. Her garage is better than mine. And I'll handle it in the Rez and bring it to her house."

"We have a garage too." Esme smiled. "You can work up there."

"If it doesn't trouble you Mom…" Bella stopped. Esme's eyes lightened up. "Um…sorry."

"Of course you can call me Mom." Esme insisted.

"Okay." Bella smiled nervously. She really was pretty when she blushed. "Thank you Mom."

"It's no problem dear." Esme grinned.

"Don't you have school?" I asked suddenly curious. "I've never seen you at Forks High."

"I'm home schooled actually." Bella answered in a small voice, politely. Not the way she talked with Jacob. Her voice seemed controlled. It hurt a little. I wanted her to be free with me. Everyone is free with me!

"But she's gonna join me to Forks High after a few weeks." Jacob said quickly.

"I'm Alice by the way. We're going to be really good friends." I cheered happily.

"I'm…Bella." Bella said hesitantly.

"I'm Edward." Edward said looking at her giving her a small smile. Bella gave a small smile and ate. She was hesitant with us.

"What's on the agenda today Alice?" Esme asked me.

"Movie night." I grinned.

"That sounds nice." Edward said. I merely chuckled at the memory of the incident again.

"You're not going to let this go are you?" Edward asked a smile on his lips.

"No." I smiled evilly.

"Don't worry Edweird. With this stick of trouble, it will be soon." Jacob assured him looking at Bella. I chuckled at Edward's new name.

"Edweird fits." I snickered. Edward scowled.

"I'm serious about the second part bro." Jacob grinned.

"Remind me again why I put up with you?" Bella asked him.

"No one can refuse this million-dollar smile." Jacob said grinning like a Cheshire cat. Bella stuck out her tongue at him.

"Okay guys. Time for school." Esme said.


Emmett POV

I was so excited. I was going to surprise my family! Eddiekins and Pixie will be thrilled. I was muttering the prayer to wake up the dead constantly to wake up the dead rat I'd found yesterday. Surprisingly, it wasn't working! Why wasn't it working? I parked my car far away from my house still muttering the prayer. How should I go in without ringing the doorbell? Alice and Edward would be home. THE GARAGE! No one would be there at that time. I grinned and sneaked in to the garage from behind. I did not expect to see a knife covered in blood across the floor. With wide eyes I followed the blood splatter. I found a beautiful girl lying on the floor. Her neck had been slit and was flowing with blood forming a pool. I screamed in a high-pitched voice. The dead girl woke up with a start and lunged at me. I WOKE UP THE DEAD! Dang it! I didn't mean for it to work on a dead girl! She was alive! She was a Mummy!

"MUMMY!" I screamed running into the house. I'd managed to get a bucket of grease on my head and the bucket was on my head. "MUMMY!" I screamed running away from the dead girl. She was a freaking mummy!

"What's going on?" Eddiekins's voice came as he walked down the stairs.

"MUMMY!" I screamed jumping in his arms. "SAVE ME EDDIEKINS!"

"What is all this noise about?" Esme's voice came.

"I WOKE UP THE DEAD! MUMMY!" I screamed.

"What the hell?" Pixie shouted and stared at me.

"Mummy!" I squeaked.

"Emmett! What are you doing here?" Eddiekins asked weirded out.

"That's not important!" I screamed. "I woke up Mummy!" I squeaked again. I heard booming laughter. Edward groaned and threw me down. It was an Indian boy laughing his brains out in the living room.

"It was the best bet ever!" The boy laughed.

"And apparently I won." The dead girl said. Bet? What bet?

"I can't believe it! Tell me you got it on tape." The Indian boy said laughing. Edward, Alice and Esme started laughing their heads out.

"I did. Although I did not expect this." The dead girl grinned. "Jacob there said that I couldn't create a murder scene my dad being the Chief. So, we made a bet and I killed myself. I actually fell asleep while playing the role and you startled me." The girl explained. My mouth was hanging open.

"I can't believe this Emmett." Pixie said laughing. Jacob came over to dead girl and handed her a hundred bucks. He patted Edward's back.

"I told you it would be over." He said laughing. He looked at the dead girl then. "I love you." He chuckled still laughing.

"For all the unhealthy reasons." She sighed.

"Who are you and how in the world did you manage to freak Me out?" I asked dead girl with amusement. This was an amazing prank. I think I finally got someone as amazing as me!

"My name is Bella. I am sorry. It was an accident and you should really take a shower. Your family wants to hug you." She said wiping the fake blood from her neck.

"I missed you Emmy. I never thought I'd laugh this much again." Alice smiled on cue. Edward patted my back.

"I've been in your place." He said in my ear chuckling.

"I doubt it." I said truthfully. I looked at Bella grinning. "It's on."

"Never prank her." Jacob said shaking his head. "Trust me I have tried. She is just a walking stick of accidental pranks. It's bad." You bet she is.

"It's still on." I said looking at Bella. I turned to Edward. "How about I tight brotherly hug from your Emmy Bear?" I said nearing him my arms wide, the grease still dripping from my clothes.

"You wouldn't dare." He warned backing away.
